SOS practising in New York!!!!!

Dear fellow pianists,
this is an urgent SOS to all colleagues living in New York (or New Jersey).
I'll be in the Big Apple from Oct. 15th to 25th, and I desperately need a piano for practising.
Of course I tried with some piano stores, studios etc., but the only really available one is very expensive (50 dollars per one hour... crazy).
In particular, I need very much a piano for the 16th Oct., from 11 am to... as much as possible.
If anyone can help me, I'd be extremely grateful. It's very important for me.
Please reply on this forum or just send me an email (chiara@chiarabertoglio.com).
Many heartily thanks to everybody!!!!!!!
Pianists' life is hard... in my next life I want to be piccoloist!!!!!!!!!!
:roll:

 

There are several colleges in NYC and you should be able to find practice rooms, huh? It seems weird that there wouldn't be any available.
